Sustainability and nature are at the core of Akiba Furniture’s first U.S. location. Recently unveiled in Dania Beach, the Central African brand’s sprawling showroom is divided into distinct spaces that intentionally highlight their handmade natural wood products’ versatility for homes, offices, restaurants and hotels.

The collection features live-edge table masterpieces, contemporary indoor and outdoor furniture, sculptures and artwork hailing from the brand’s home base of Gabon, Africa. Fashioned from a variety of species from the area’s old-growth rainforests, the selection ranges in color and texture to suit multiple styles. Working exclusively with ethically sourced and traceable wood, Akiba Furniture carries products made by artisans in Gabon that celebrate the region’s rich culture.
